It's all like this. I don't even understand where the stuff in this page is coming from, but "coercion and violence of communist rule" is once again just thrown in there.

Also this book seems to really be looking down on the working class from my reading, although I suppose it tries to highlight some issues. Not to mention all the discourse about social capital or other types of capital, but never actual capital.

This also reads like a weird sort of celebration of neoliberalism as inevitable, but then again I am just so tired of reading stuff like this that I am probably not giving it much credit.

Book is called "masculinity, labor and neoliberalism".

    The bros (and the people who has to endure them) were all materially better during ebil gommunism, which made the bros gay, but it was also patriarcal, and made the wamen unhappy, despite wamen doing far better than after gommunism was killed.

    So when the ebil patriarcal gommunism dieded, all the bros stopped being gay and emasculated, but also longed for patriarchy which was no more cuz gommunism ded, so they turned into reactionary dickheads and started posting on 4chan and jacking off to tradcath-gf-wojacks
